art-based Discovery LAB

Art-based Discovery LAB is a non-judgemental space created to experiment and play with various forms of expression and inspiring art-making techniques. We invite all artists, art therapists, coaches, facilitators, and people who enjoy making art to discover new tools that can be applied to both their personal artistic practice and in therapeutic settings with clients.

Nothing is more important than creative play through imagination. Never stop playing, and never stop imagining!” ― Carmela Dutra

In our art-based Discovery LAB, we have one main goal: to play with the arts and learn about new and inspiring art-based tools, both analogue and digital. If this is what you need, please join us every two months on a cosy Wednesday evening. Let’s awaken our natural ability to be playful, genuinely expressive, and joyful. Let’s invite pleasure into our professional and creative development. Let’s learn how to actively use all those fascinating art-based tools that wait for us out there!
